Letra del Tango Historia de un amor

Ya no estás más a mi lado, corazón,
en el alma sólo tengo soledad
y si ya no puedo verte,
porque Dios me hizo quererte
para hacerme sufrir más…

Siempre fuiste la razón de mi existir,
adorarte para mí fue religión.
Y en tus besos yo encontraba
el calor que me brindaba,
el amor y la pasión.

Es la historia de un amor,
como no hay otro igual.
Que me hizo comprender,
todo el bien todo el mal,
que le dio luz a mi vida,
apagandola después.
¡Ay, qué vida tan oscura,
corazón,
sin tu amor no viviré!

English lyrics of the Tango "Historia de un amor"

You’re no longer by my side, dear,
in my soul I hold only loneliness.
And if I can no longer see you,
it’s because God made me love you
to make me suffer more…

You were always the reason I lived,
adoring you was my religion.
In your kisses, I found
the warmth that gave me
love and passion.

It’s the story of a love,
like no other the same.
That made me understand
all the good, all the bad,
that gave light to my life,
then extinguishing it afterward.
Oh, what a dark life,
dear,
without your love, I will not live!

Story behind the Tango Historia de un amor

The song “Historia de un amor” tells a poignant story of loss and unending love. The lyrics express a deep, agonizing pain led by the absence of a loved one, emphasizing the loneliness and darkness brought on by this loss. The speaker reflects on love as both a divine gift and a source of suffering, indicating that his profound connection, once a source of immense joy and purpose, now brings him immense pain in its absence.



Symbolism of Historia de un amor

“Historia de un amor” is heavily marked by its symbolic use of darkness and light, heart as a symbol for love, and religion as a metaphor for devotion. One of the key lines, “en tus besos yo encontraba el calor que me brindaba”, uses warmth as a metaphor for love, contrasting the coldness of loneliness. Another striking line, “¡Ay, qué vida tan oscura, corazón, sin tu amor no viviré!”, uses darkness to symbolize life without love, portraying it as something not worth living.
